There's no SMC logo on the lower canopy.. It is very yellowed, indicating that it's old..
I wish the control was with it.. It would be interesting if the control would be like the one in the link or an SMC control..

Was it originally brown?

Downrod and upper canopy appear to have been brown at one time.. But the paint job is very professional on those parts, that it looks to have been done by manufacturer or factory..

nice finds! that "SMC" is definitely a SMC clone.. not sure which company manufactured those, but they come from china, i also got one with exactly the same lower canopy as the one in the pic, the SMC clone i had had the same winding structure as the 1978-1982 SMC models, mine was branded TMK

I'm no expert on these either, but if his serial numbers are dating 1984 and have the reverse switch like mine does, than that shows they started with electronic reverse in 1984... I'm beginning to think that whoever said 1984 doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. Where is Hicks when we need him?

I love that Original so much. Not like anything unseen but it's one of those examples that looks particularly beautiful.

The Southern Breeze has been added to the SMC Gallery under the metal blade section.. I used my NOS King of Fans 4 speed control I got at Habitat about two months ago.. I think it gives a good range of speeds.. Solid control with a heavy transformer.. I'll be using this control in videos of fans that don't have the original speed control... It's featured in this video so you can see what it looks like..

It's very oddly proportioned.
